In the autumn of 2005, Chen Yanzhou, a young man from a third-tier town, used his father's 50,000 yuan pension to bet on the stock market, and thus entered a capital puzzle that spanned eighteen years. From the share-trading reform to the national bull market, from the thousand-point bear market to the leverage craze, he used his grassroots experience to find the anchor of destiny in the K-line chart - not only to fight against the irrational craze of the market, but also to face the greed and fear in his heart.
This is not a "stock god" myth, but a spiritual epic of ordinary people in the tide of the times. When wealth suddenly comes, how can family, friendship, and love withstand the test? When values and beliefs encounter a torrent of trends, does sticking to them mean being pedantic? Behind the hustle and bustle of the daily limit, what really determines success or failure is never the codes and charts, but the invisible moving average deep in the hearts of people.
"The Ups and Downs of the Stock Market" restores the critical 20 years of China's capital market with cold writing, integrating investment philosophy, social changes and human struggles, and is dedicated to all those who are still trying to live soberly in an era of uncertainty.
